Justin Jennings – Madness cover

Vocal Coach Comments from Gina Latimerlo:

Great voice and awesome take on this song. Those “finally”s seem tough and are going under in pitch. Try lifting your soft palate to create more space for those higher notes. Your soft palate is the soft part of the roof of your mouth in back where the uvula hangs down. Imagine the beginning of a yawn to open it. Also, lift your eyebrows up (it will assist the soft palate – as the same part of your brain controls both your soft palate and your eyebrows). Open your eyes and imagine the notes coming straight out of you (not up, straight). It’ll be there.
